If you're actually bleeding money, you better believe you'll get permissions for a workaround, if you know what you're doing.
It all ties back to the OP, where the issue you've might not be as bad as you think. I have been in situations where we have dropped all procedures to push a hot fix because we were actively bleeding money, and in situations where you know there is an issue, and you let it be.
What an odd hill to die on. Maybe I just lost a $30M client because they wanted an issue fixed now. Maybe my company would get sued for violating their contractual obligations if someone went cowboy to bypass procedures.
Maybe I pay for a service and I want that service to work consistently during core business hours.
